[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 307407, member: 4191"] [U]MR[/U], I researched this about one year ago. Michael is correct, and there's nothing I could add to clarify his post. It was interesting and educational researching the topic, so I'd continue until you've had enough. [U]lisagrantb[/U], 8-10 inches at 1000 yards could be caused by a slightly misaligned scope, a slight cant, a slight wind, and slightly less than perfection in any number of areas of execution. I'd run with whatever your target proves to be correct, which will take into consideration all of the potential affecting factors. You don't see any spin drift or coriolis, then run with that. They are affecting your bullet flight each and every shot, regardless of whether or not you can account for them. They're somehow getting lost in the noise of the minutia of factors that can slightly affect POA versus POI at 1000 yds. I've learned some things don't matter much until you move past the 600 yd range. Then there's any number of things that begin taking a toll on the theory versus the reality. [/QUOTE]
